TrendForce's latest memory-price survey: DRAM market will remain extremely tight
in Q3 2026, but weaker consumer demand and a high base will narrow
contract-price gains to about 13-18% QoQ. NAND Flash demand is still led by AI
inference and large data-center builds, yet contract prices are at historical
highs and consumer-side price tolerance is reaching limits; TrendForce forecasts
NAND contract prices will rise 10-15% QoQ, a marked slowdown versus prior
quarters.
